Secretary of State Marco Rubio faced questioning from Rep. Ted Lieu during a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing. Lieu claimed President Trump cannot stay awake during meetings. Rubio immediately pushed back, stating Trump is not falling asleep and calling the line of inquiry absurd and ridiculous.
Rubio noted the committee's focus should not involve medical speculation from a non-expert. He contrasted the situation with the previous administration, stating the country had a cognitively impaired president for four years.
Rubio described Trump as someone who literally does not sleep, works long hours daily, and maintains contact at all times. He recounted trips where Trump stayed awake the entire flight, waking staff to discuss matters, and highlighted the president's incredible energy levels.
